Chose the place based on average reviews. I was not overly impressed. The service seemed to care…read moremore about their convenience than serving the customer. Our group ended up having to sit separately because the waitress was concerned about not being able to walk around a larger table, which seemed unfounded and a concern that was waitress centered rather than customer centered. When asked about closing a window because cold air was affecting some in our party, same waitress said it was not possible because the kitchen needed the air... Well... five minutes later, the customers that took the table near the window simply closed the window to avoid the cold wind... Two for two! Not a great beginning. Ordered seafood chowder and fish and chips. What would you expect? Yes... seafood chowder is served first and once customers are done with it ... you bring the fish and chips. Logical, right? Not here. They brought everything together, which meant the fish and chips got cold while we had the chowder. Third strike... Anything else? Let me say this, the fried fish, in my opinion, was not great. First, you could taste "stale" oil (old oil). This alone turned me off. Second, there was little fish and a lot of breading, I'd say 70% breading 30% fish. So, if you combine oil taste with very thick breading you get what I got. To eat the fish I had to take the breading apart. On a positive note, the seafood chowder was excellent. As Luc B. review pointed out, it is a very basic family and kid friendly setting.

What was found out from them most recently is that an overwhelming majority found that the overall value/ quality of the items purchased fell flat to the expectations for monies spent. Each conversation had concerned the rather messiness of individual items, wait time, the tone, appearance , communication of expeditors . For this, with their collected responses & approval for comment submission I must share this with the Public I will no longer promote this establishment (or Moo's Ice Cream) so not to embarrass myself, or Family on Island

An excellent hidden gem, serving all day breakfast & decorated completely in cosy wood panelling…read more We were at a loss on a family trip to come up with something wholesome in this area for several adults & two kids, & this ended up being perfect as well as reasonable. When we arrived there were no tables to be had inside, & we heard they'd been slammed all day. A table cleared quickly enough & we chose coffee & chocolate milk, a couple of full breakfasts for $8, two breakfast sandwiches for about $4, & a kids hot dog, which came with apples and caramels sauce. Everything was good quality, from the extra large hot dog on a proper bun, not a flimsy white bread one, to the bacon. We were totally impressed and our total bill only came to around $35 for five hungry folks. Given the dearth of good eating choices nearby, this is a no brainer and we were so glad it was there!

I came in with my elderly mother and sister and her husband for supper at 5:50PM for supper. All…read morethat was left was high top tables, so we asked to sit outside. After sitting out there for a while, I went in to find the waitress because no one hasn't come out to even check on us. After about 40 minutes (still no food), the waitress came out to tell us there was a regular table inside and while seated, I realized there were, at the very least, 3 tables who had been seated and had food on their tables. As we were waiting for our food, another party was leaving (seated around the same time as us) and had an exchange of conversation with the owner, which turned into a sarcastic, cringy yelling match in front of the house. Then the owner made it a point to belittle the patron as he left the restaurant stating he was the small percentage that was "upset" with the service (while we were literally still waiting and at the point closing in on an hour. The ambiance is nice, but does not cater to the elderly with the minimal low (regular) tables. Even being busy, not an excuse to sit and serve multiple tables before others sat before them. My brother in laws food was cold and when he asked the waitress to come over to address this, she was clearly annoyed while she walked away with his plate. EDIT: Waitress came over and offered us some compensation, realizing that we were waiting for some time. This was appreciated and respected that they took the time to do so.

Off the main drag, it's nice and quiet and the dog-friendly patio is huge with lots of spots in the sun or hidden back in the shade.

Our service was prompt, friendly and efficient. Food came quickly, she came by regularly for refills and the portion size was good for what you pay.

Our family has to navigate life with a severe nut allergy, so we were impressed when the staff took the time to discuss with us exactly which menu items were made in-house and safe. It's a mom and pop operation, they talked about how hard it was to find consistency and quality from the suppliers during -and after- the pandemic. We were able to find several food options for my son, and for him we ordered fried fish with a side of poutine. He was in heaven. Well, we all were, actually, because the seafood was delish. We even returned later for soft serve ice cream because they guaranteed it was nut-free. My kid has only had ice cream from a commercial restaurant maybe 2 or 3 times in his life, so it was a very rare and welcome treat. We definitely recommend Captain Scott's - both for their food and also for their family's friendliness and service. We love this place. Thank you!
